    Are they really that unreliable?

    So he waits 9 months for bike rides it 250 miles. Now gonna have to wait months to ride again. How are Shimano getting away with offering such a poor service

    Are they really that unreliable?

    I agree with you, I have told the retailer that Shimano quoting 3-6months for repair/replacement motor is unreasonable and would like a quicker solution and am waiting for reply from warranty department. So hopefully they will be able to offer a quicker solution. 🤞

    Squeaky ep8

    Hey, so After a few wet rides my Shimano ep8 has developed a squeak when pedalling. Its alot worse when pedal assist is on. I couldn't hear it at first with the power assist off but after listening carefully can just about hear it. I thought maybe water had got inside but It doesn't seem to...

    Spectral:on cracked frame, warranty replacement rejected by Canyon

    How have they determined impact damage? Seems like they are just using that as an excuse. Surely if had been impact you would know about it and there would be impact damage from whatever it was hit by not just a crack. I would keep pushing them for replacement. That said if u do split bike I'd...
